Serving


For serving any relatively fine, soft fiber will do, such as cotton etc. Make the turns as close together as possible so that none of the bowstring is seen underneath. Below is a simple method of tying the serving without the use of knots, as these tend to undue due to any vibration in the string.



Pull back the excess and cut as close to the serving as possible with a sharp knife.
